"Going fast with class"
In this video, we're excited to reveal this 1987 Buick Grand National we built for our good friend Dave Fiscus.
Dave is a fan of Buick Grand Nationals and owns four of them. He bought this 1987 Grand National as a rolling chassis and wanted to build it into the best possible x275 car. The car was painted by Boy Knott's Auto Body and has a one-piece carbon front end, carbon hood, carbon doors, and carbon deck lid. The car also has a real Buick Grand National V6 and It has an 80 millimeter Precision turbo.
This car has undergone a complete transformation and is now a high-performance machine with show car like looks that's ready to hit the track. From the custom-built engine, paint job, to the modified suspension, no detail has been overlooked by Jay Bird and the rest of the crew.
Join us as we take a closer look at the features and modifications that make this Buick Grand National a one-of-a-kind vehicle. We'll also talk with Dave Fiscus about what he wanted out of the build and how he feels about the finished product.

Top notch. There’s no reason a race car can’t look like a show car and this proves it. The attention to detail is unbelievable. Especially in the dash. Even the stitching where the upholstery came together was painted in. My first car I drove was our family Grand National. So watching this video brought back some good memories. One day there will be one in my life again.

From this moment on every single new race car should be built to this level of detail. Seriously it oughta be a law. I'm blown away at the quality, innovation, craftsmanship and 15 other adjectives to describe the bad-assery going on with this Buford! Had to do a major edit. Not sure what happened but a bunch of comments for other short vids ended up here. If anything found seems out of place or weird gimme a holler and I'll delete it. i apologize for any confusion

Man that’s a gorgeous car Dave your a lucky man to have that I was wanting to build one like that things didn’t line up though I couldn’t fine the right car. But my dad had one something like that but it wasn’t a race car it was a stock Buick that he put a grand National front clip on and the engine was shot so he put a 350 four bolt main in it then he actually got a real deal Grand National that we found in Columbus Ohio and someone hit it when it was parked outside of a Kroger grocery store.
